talksport.com, 6 December 2021, 19:49
Steven Gerrard is set to receive a hostile reception in his first FA Cup match as a manager with his Aston Villa side being drawn away to Manchester United in the third round.

The 41-year-old, who's made a strong start to his Villa tenure, is of course best known for his days playing for the Red Devils' arch-rivals Liverpool.

National League side Chesterfield, who beat the Class of 92's Salford City in the second round, got themselves a great draw as they face Chelsea at Stamford Bridge.

There were interesting ties for Manchester City and Tottenham, who face Swindon Town and Morecambe respectively. Meanwhile, record winners Arsenal have a tricky trip to Nottingham Forest and Liverpool host League One Shrewsbury Town.

Holders Leicester, who beat Chelsea in last season's final, are set to entertain Watford and former manager Claudio Ranieri.

Below you can see the full third round draw for this season's FA Cup. All ties will be played between January 7-10.
